rented love

I am back from my Bachelorette Party in Dallas, and finally caught up to the rest of the world. 
For the special occasion of celebrating with my girlfriends, I fell to my new "old standby", Rent the Runway. What better way to pop champagne and sing "All the Single Ladies" than in a rented dress. But for serious, this could not be any easier.
Pick out a designer dress (from 100s!), place an order (for a fraction of retail, up to 90% off), get a dress (and an extra size just in case) overnighted to wherever you may be, keep it for 4 days, then send it back in the pre-paid mailer. They take care of laundering it, and insurance covers any major damages. For realz
Over my past 2 years of being a member, this is my 5th time renting a dress. I have loved everything I've worn so far, but this dress might be my new favorite. The Sachin + Babi "Petal to the Metal" Dress was perfect for our ladies' night out! I danced worry free all night, and had money in my pocket for shots for the bride-to-be. I love being smart and renting instead of purchasing, but still getting decked out in designer duds!

Thinking fabulous thoughts of the rich and famous!

P.S. I typically hold out for a great coupon (20% off and free shipping!) and rent multiple dresses at once to take advantage of the rent one dress, get the second look for $25 deal... So any of the prices you see on the site are more than what I pay ;)
